Rita Moreno Has 2 Grandchildren and Is Absolutely in Love with Them

After six decades of groundbreaking achievements in Hollywood, actress and singer Rita Moreno got to kick back and enjoy life with her grandchildren. She enjoyed spending time with them so much that she dedicated an area of her house for their leisure. Let's take a look at the superstar's family.

Rita Moreno will be 92 this year, celebrating a long life of prosperity and more than fifty years of motherhood. The "West Side Story" star, who is a mother of one, welcomed her daughter Fernanda Luisa Gordon in 1967 with her now-deceased cardiologist husband, Leonard Gordon.

Rita is a grandmother of two. Her daughter married David Tyler Fisher, and they will celebrate their 27th anniversary this year. She has given life to two boys named Justin Fisher and Cameron Fisher, the apples of Rita's eye.

Justin Fisher

Justin was born the same year as his parents' wedding, in 1996. Rita revealed that her grandsons differ in many aspects, including their appearance. She once said Justin could be mistaken for a kid from a "Latino ghetto" and added that although his mother is fair-skinned and his father is not Latino, his skin tone resembled café au lait.

Justin possessed a lot of energy as a child; in fact, his grandmother described him as a bit of a jock by the time he was just nine years old. He participated in many extracurricular activities, such as soccer, golf, basketball, and swimming. He even made a habit of defeating his now-deceased grandfather at chess, and he was tough to beat.

Rita also praised her grandson, saying that he was not a genius but astute and wired that way. In 2006, Justin won a trophy with his soccer team — a little gold soccer player on a base with his name written. He was so proud of his achievement that he ended up finding a place for it next to Rita's Oscar award.

As a kid, Justin had some creative bones in his body. His mom would make jewelry with semiprecious stones, and the eager Justin wanted in on the fun. He made a piece of his own and handed it to his teacher, who was so impressed that she demanded to pay for it under the premise of contributing to his college fund.

As an adult, Justin has led a private life. He has a private Instagram page on which he vets the personnel requesting access. So without much information about him in recent years, his Instagram bio provides an overview of where he's at in life.

The initial statement on his bio reveals that he places good energy over everything. The rest of it notes that he is the co-founder of Shouldr. Apparel, residing in Oakland, Boulder, Denver — the city of the John Frank scam — and at the time of this writing, an ambassador of Damn Right.

Cameron Fisher

Rita and David became grandparents of two when their daughter brought Cameron Fisher home. Justin's younger brother was born three years into his parents' marriage in 1999 and was drastically different than him in all aspects. Rita recalled her first impression of Cameron as a newborn:

"We didn't attend his birth. My daughter and her husband said, 'Okay, one birthing with grandparents is enough.' So, when he came from the hospital, and I saw him in his crib, I stared at him and said, 'My God. That is a white child.' Justin and Cameron don't look anything remotely alike, and their personalities are just as different."

Cameron is the more articulate of the two grandchildren and was referred to as "the little poet" by his family. Although he battled figuring out the art of reading as a child, he always worded himself excellently. When he spoke about a hanging toy in his classroom, young Cameron said that the toy "has to be stabilized."

Cameron was always the sweetheart among Rita's grandkids. Unlike his athletic brother, he never shied away from showing affection; in fact, he would very often be the initiator of such moments. One of his morning routines as a child was to embrace his movie star grandmother, who explained:

"It's hard to hug Justin; I have to catch him from the rear and grab him and kiss him, and I hold real tight, so he can't get away. Camie, God bless him, he wakes up at 6 a.m., and he immediately jumps into bed with me and gives me a hug; and we cuddle, and sometimes we fall back to sleep together."

Rita projected that her little grandson would become an "amazing little adult," considering he expressed himself so eloquently and conducted himself in a commendable manner around people much older than himself. Cameron is also on Instagram but, with a private account, not much is known about him now.

Rita Loves Being a Grandmother

Rita, who boasts one of the most legendary collections of accolades, was inducted into the California Hall of Fame on the same day as the golf legend Tiger Woods, the man behind one of the world's leading tech companies Steve Jobs, and the grandmother of 10 actress Elizabeth Taylor. Rita's grandsons are incredibly proud of her accomplishments.

After reaching extraordinary heights in Hollywood and becoming a grandmother, Rita and her husband relocated from L.A. to Berkeley because she and her husband loved the area and, more significantly, to be closer to her grandchildren and her look-alike daughter. Her little boys would frequently go to her place to enjoy sleepovers with their granny.

When Rita relocated, she built a house with enough room for the boys to come over with their toys. Her entire life revolved around her darling grandchildren. She and her husband would invite the boys twice a week and spoil them with maple milk — her innovative way of getting Justin to drink milk.
